github_developers — GitHub developer mutual followers (2019)
- Description
A social network of developers on the software hosting platform GitHub, collected from its public API in June 2019 by B. Rozemberczki and collaborators (MUSAE study) for benchmarks of node embedding and classification methods. Nodes are developers who have starred at least 10 repositories, and an undirected edge connects two developers who follow each other (a mutual follower relationship). Each developer is labeled as a web or a machine learning developer, a label which the authors derived from the job title, and has a list of binary features extracted from the location, the starred repositories, the employer and the email address (only the indices of the features are given, not their meaning; 16 lists contain repeated indices, kept as given).
This network is unrelated to the
githubentry (users and the repositories they watched, from the GitHub contest of 2009).The network has the following properties:
name: the GitHub user name.is_ml: whether the developer is a machine learning developer (otherwise a web developer).features: the indices of the developer's binary features.
